Our nooze media love to gloat over reports that Americans are leaving their churches and dropping Christianity. But are the reports true?

Are We Really Deserting Christ?

Christians aren’t going to stay in churches that aren’t Christian anymore. If Jesus has left the building, so should you.

Naturally we’re concerned by the numbers–if we believe them. Leaving a particular church is not the same as leaving Christianity. We do not forsake our assembling together for prayer and worship and thanksgiving. But we find new ways to do it.

Like here, for instance.

Getting up and leaving

Some of us were upset by this 2016 Pew Poll that reported that 49% of people who’v e left the church no longer believe in God or miracles (and would you believe it” They’ve found corn in Kansas!). That also means that 51% still do, but that wasn’t in the headline.

A Nation of Suckers

There are all sorts of reasons for leaving the church. I left out of youthful laziness, and by the time I was ready to come back, my church had joined the Far Left Crazy. But along the way I learned that you don’t need a building to have a church–just people gathered together in Jesus’ name.

But oh, those replacement beliefs! “We’re too smart to believe in God! We’ve been to college!”
